Hair thinning, particularly in the frontal lobe and crown region, combined with your symptoms like an oily scalp, dandruff, warm body temperature, frequent colds, and nasal polyps, suggests a prominent Pitta imbalance. The fact that you’ve experienced a change from smooth to rough hair texture can further indicate that Pitta and possibly Vata imbalances are at play. To address the root cause from an Ayurvedic perspective, let’s delve into a few tailored strategies:

1. Herbal Remedies: Integrating herbs such as Bhringraj and Amla can be advantageous for hair health. Try using Bhringraj oil for scalp massage twice weekly, it strengthens hair roots and promotes regrowth. You can also consider consuming Amla juice daily, which is rich in Vitamin C and cools down Pitta.

2. Dietary Adjustments: Enhance your diet with Pitta-pacifying foods like cucumber, coriander, mint, and coconut water. Avoid excessively spicy, fried, or oily foods that can aggravate Pitta. Eating cooling and hydrating fruits like melons and pomegranates can also help. Hydration with adequate water intake is essential. Mannage meals so they are regular and not too large to prevent digestive discomfort associated with piles.

3. Lifestyle Modifications: Regular exercise, like yoga or a daily walk, aids in managing stress and Pitta balance. Enough rest is vital; ensure you are getting quality sleep every night.

4. Managing Dandruff and Oiliness: For dandruff, you might consider a neem-based shampoo or preparing a paste of neem leaves to apply on the scalp before washing.

5. Boosting Immunity: Since frequent colds and nasal polyps indicate compromised immunity and a potential Kapha accumulation, consider Ayurveda’s Chyawanprash, which fortifies immune response.

6. Consult Regularly: If you haven’t checked your haemoglobin recently and noticed low levels in the past, monitor this as part of addressing hair health, as it could contribute to hair thinning.

Remember, more traditional Ayurvedic practices like ‘Shirodhara’ (where oil is poured on the forehead) might beneficially impact mental relaxation and Pitta calming effects. For specialized therapies or herbal regiment, consulting with a local practitionar is advised for personalized treatments.

Based on the details you’ve shared, it seems like your condition involves a pitta imbalance, particularly affecting your hair and scalp. This could be contributing to both the thinning of hair and other symptoms you’ve described. An imbalanced pitta dosha often leads to heat in the body, affecting the scalp’s health and contributing to hair thinning.

Perhaps to start, focus on cooling your system and soothing the scalp. Regularly applying cool coconut oil or Brahmi oil to the scalp may help calm pitta and promote hair health. Massage gently, maybe twice a week, allowing the oil to sit for at least 30 minutes before washing it out with a gentle, naturally-formulated shampoo.

To support your digestion and regulate body heat, try consuming aloe vera juice or amla juice daily. These can help cool the body and improve your overall pitta balance. Eating fresh fruits and leafy greens, while avoiding pungent, spicy and fried foods, can also help maintain a cooler internal environment.

Since dandruff is present, maintain scalp hygiene by rinsing your hair with a tea made from neem leaves. You can boil a handful of neem leaves in water, let it cool, and use it as a final rinse after washing your hair.

Regarding nasal polyps and frequent colds, these symptoms might indicate a kapha imbalance too. Keeping your nasal passages clear with steam inhalation, infused with eucalyptus oil, can offer relief.

Please consider consulting with a healthcare professional to check your haemoglobin levels, given the past low levels, and to evaluate the nasal polyps. This could also help rule out other potential underlying causes that might not be exclusively related to dosha imbalances.
